Wilmington. THURSDAY, Feb. II. 1887

President Cleveland's veto of the in
digent pension bill, in the face OF the
large majority which that surplus grab
bling measure unaccountably received in
both houses of Congress, was an act char
acteristic of the backbone of the man, and
for which he will receive the hearty
thanks not only Of the American people
at large, but also OF the majority Of the
veterans Of the late war. The real pro-
moters of this scheme were mot the ex-
soldiers, but the greedy claim agents who
scented rich piokines ahead, and the dem
agogues who want to ride into office on
the soldier vote. The Presidential
veto is good thing when vested
in such hands as President Cleve-
lands, and his message conveying
this veto Is so full of common-sense
knock-down argument that it is very
doubtful whether the rejected grab-bil
can rally from the blow. The Philadel
phia Record classes this veto with thu
three most noteworthy exercises of THU
power, a power which it is interesting Il
remember has not been exercised by al
English sovereign since 1907, in on
country recent political history-Grant'
veto of the $500, 600, 900 greenback ID
aation bill, Hayes vets of the Blan'
dollar Inland Arthur's veto of the rive
I'd hArb,or divide. "These vetoes,"
,.ass, ALL Of them, eyinced high courag
in the face of overwhelming majorities i
Congress and Of powerful influence on
Of doors. But none of the others II
quired so much firmness as was shown b
the veto of this pension bill, when til
strong personal interests enlisted in il
favor are taken into confederation. III
proper remedy for these spasmodic raic
on Uncle Sans money chest is to @
down the tariff to the legitimate currel
expenses of the government. The exis
ence of a surplus is q standing temptatio
